Chapter 79: Chapter 79
Now Barbara Jones finally understood why Leo Young used Chinese to communicate when he was working. It was because he originally belonged to the Zenith Group.
To be able to be appointed as the CEO of the Wing, his abilities must have been confirmed. Furthermore, seeing the way Leo Young had been working recently, his abilities were definitely not ordinary.
As she thought about it, Barbara Jones's gaze fell onto Leo Young's face, unable to move away. He always wore a pair of gold—rimmed glasses, which he seldom took off except when he was asleep.
Wearing glasses, he looked mature and reserved. Without wearing glasses, he looked a bit gentler. Whether he wore the glasses or not, his natural elegance could not be concealed, and his face was so perfect.
Suddenly, Barbara Jones thought about a popular scene on the internet. The man wearing glasses looked gentle and refined, using his seemingly gentle appearance to bewitch people, but in reality, he was just a "beast dressed in elegance."
Barbara Jones once again thought of the events that happened on the day of the charity banquet. That day, Leo Young really made her afraid.
No, Barbara Jones quickly shook her head and patted her face. How could she think of him that way? Since she had chosen to forget what had happened that day, she should no longer let her imagination run wild.
Barbara Jones was so engrossed in her thoughts that she did not notice the gentle gaze that Leo Young had cast on her. She shook her head, then patted her face, then frowned, then flattened her mouth.
Her face was so full of emotions that it was clear that she was immersed in her own world. Leo Young looked at her and couldn't help but want to know something. What was the world inside her?Could she allow him to go in and have a look?
Maybe Leo Young's gaze was too obvious that Barbara Jones finally regained her senses, and raised her head to look at him, only to meet Leo Young's gaze.
She turned her head quickly, trying to avoid his gaze instinctively.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Nothing, nothing." Hearing that she said nothing, Leo Young did not pursue the matter further, and returned his attention back to his work.
Leo Young was busy with work. It was not good for her to disturb him, so she just sat quietly. However, not long after, Hebe Swift sent a box of snacks and milk over, and said with a smile, "Mr. Young asked me to prepare this for you."
After thanking Hebe Swift, Barbara Jones brought the snacks to Leo Young's table and asked him with a smile, “do you want to eat?”
"Yes." Leo Young replied directly.
Barbara Jones pushed the plate closer to him, "then eat a little before continuing your work. Even a machine can't run 24 hours a day, and you're still human."
"Feed me." Leo Young said without raising his head.
Uh...Feed him? When Leo Young said such ambiguous words, why did he always say so serious? Was it because he didn't understand how ambiguous the act of feeding him was, or was he just trying to tease her?
Barbara Jones's little heart was beating extremely fast.
But looking at Leo Young, he was busy with work. He did not even look at her, not to mention that he had any other thoughts. He was just busy.
Okay, Barbara Jones admitted that she overthought it again. She picked up a piece of pastry and placed it next to Leo Young's mouth. Leo Young looked at the numbers on the computer screen, and then took a bite obediently.
He took a big bite. Then the dessert became much smaller than before. After he finished eating, Barbara Jones sent it over to him.
It was unknown if it was done intentionally or not. But when he bit, even Barbara Jones's finger was bitten by him.He did not use much strength. He sucked on it lightly, like a baby drinking milk.
A numb feeling instantly spread throughout Barbara Jones's body. This frightened Barbara Jones retracted her hand in a hurry. Once again, her face blushed.
Leo Young's gaze finally left the computer. He looked at Barbara Jones, and said in a neither light nor heavy tone, "are you feeding me like the monkeys?"
Barbara Jones said nothing. Could it be that she was overthinking things again? He actually didn't have the same meaning as she had in her heart?
She took another pastry and handed it over. "Eat another one then."
"Is it boring to be here with me?" Leo Young no longer opened his mouth, but asked her this question.
"I'm not bored." There was nothing bad in being able to talk to him here rather than going back home. The most important thing was the double pay that he had just mentioned."
Barbara Jones."Leo Young called her name again, and his voice was still filled with charm. He had been together with her for two or three months, but he still felt that it was very pleasant when he called her name.
"Hmm?"Just as the word "okay" came out of his mouth, Leo Young's long arm stretched out and dragged her onto his lap.
Barbara Jones was so frightened that she reached out her hand and pressed it on his chest. Her body was extremely stiff, and when she opened her mouth she started to tremble, "Leo Young, don't do that here."
"Why not?" He reached out his hand and touched the hair of her forehead. He looked at her steadily and seriously.
Barbara Jones said nothing again. She had thought he was going to do what he had done that night, and she said it instinctively after the shock. But looking at Leo Young right now, he didn't want to do anything to her.
She was thinking too much. so how could she dare to tell him anything? In the past, when she didn't want to answer any questions and wanted to escape, Leo Young would always be very considerate and wouldn't chase after her to ask questions any more.
"Hmm?" Today, Leo Young did not want to let her go. He had to find out what it meant to not stay here. As her body was being hugged, it was the first time that she was hugged so intimately.
Barbara Jones's mind was stuck that she couldn't even find an excuse.At this time, she wished that she could have a shell. As long as she hid inside it, she wouldn't have to answer the question.
Leo Young were always looking at her. His gaze was focused and serious, as if trying to tell her that if he didn't get the answer, he definitely wouldn't let her go.Barbara Jones wanted to escape, but she couldn't. His arm seemed to caress her waist gently, but it was also so strong that it was impossible for her to break free.
After struggling, Barbara Jones gave up. It was unknown if she was stupid. Under Leo Young's gaze, she reached out her hands and wrapped her arms around Leo Young's neck, and took the initiative to kiss him.
No, she wasn't kissing him. She was biting him.
It was as if she was avenging the events of that night, paying back everything that he had done to her. In terms of relationships, Leo Young didn't have much experience, but in the business, he was the top that could handle all kind of things.
After a slight hesitation, he took the initiative and kissed her fiercely.
"Knock—knock!"
Knocking sounds suddenly came from the door. Todd Powell pushed the door and entered, "Mr. Young."
The two people who were kissing instantly separated. Barbara Jones wanted to escape, but was pressed into his embrace, and Leo Young asked gloomily, "what's the matter?"
